Profile: In the midst of his arbitration years, Elbert finally did something to help plead his case last season. After posting a 9.18 strikeout rate with a 2.43 strikeout-to-walk ratio, Elbert should remain the Dodgers top lefty specialist in 2012. Unfortunately, the limited innings don’t help much on the fantasy front. (Howard Bender)

Profile: Of the 49 lefty relievers who have thrown at least 60 innings over the last two seasons, Elbert ranks fifth in ERA at 2.32. Yes, ERA isn't the best way to judge a reliever and Elbert's FIP doesn't quite back it up, but after years of trying to stick in the bigs -- including a bizarre and never fully explained incident in 2010 where he completely walked away from the sport -- it shows that he's finally found his niche in the Dodger bullpen. He's not a LOOGY in the traditional sense, and he'll need to overcome late season elbow surgery, but he should occupy an important spot for the team once again in 2013. (Mike Petriello)

The Quick Opinion: Scott Elbert may not have reached the heights envisioned for him when the Dodgers made him a first-round pick in 2004, but he's quietly become a very reliable lefty out of the pen over the last two seasons.
